dragonfireflys

CAGiversary!
UPDATED 1/16
This was in pittsburgh. Basically bunch of originally 14-30 dollar games for 60% off (clearance?) It was some supposed "BLUE LIGHT SPECIAL EVENT" but no blue lights involved; also included LOTS of other items (tags beneath the shelves).

Didn't see what gba games were on sale but I assume they were 60% of 15-20 so they'd be 6 or 8 dollars.

Decent selection sat/sun 1/16-1/17 only.

Apparently this deal includes both the platinum hits and regular skus at least on xbox. I assume it applies to PS2 greatest hits as well.
 
Gets even better: the Metroid Prime + Wavebird bundles are $16!

Used the $15 check that I had from the DoubleDash bundle and picked one up for $2 w/ tax.
 
[quote name='vherub']the kmart at madison square garden has this sale, but no idea on what stock they have[/quote]

All I know is that they set it up in a sort of DVD like display near the electronics cashier. Completely fucking ugly crappy kmart display and unsure if ANY OTHER games were included. It may be ALL platinum hits, but don't quote me on that.
 
no... no... no... NO, I refuse to go into Kmart, I don't care, not this time, everytime I go the Kmart by me has nothing, and I'm not gonna get suckered into going down there again.

I'm with ya, horsey.. especially since I let the $15 Nintendo check turn into GameCrazy store credit.. that's okay though.. must.. resist.. sale..

Same here. Every single time I hear of a "clearance" or "special" from them, it always ends up in nothing.

Sorry I'm leaving tommorrow so you'll have to find someone else.

Any other kind souls who aren't going anywhere?
 
Anyone have a list of the titles that are on sale so far? My Kmart had a little cheap plastic crate on the electronics display case near the register with games in it for 60% off, marked "ONLY THESE ARE 60% OFF". I spotted a Wavebird/Metroid bundle in the video game case along the wall on the bottom marked at $39.99 and it scanned at $15.99. They also had Mario Party 4 Wavebird bundles, but those scanned at $69.99.

Thanks to Tim for posting the Wavebird deal!
 
I saw a list of the games, it's a good 5 pages long. Here's what I remember of it(which isn't much at all):


PS2-
Castlevania
Wild Arms 3
XIII
BG+E
Twisted Metal Black
Amplitude


XBOX:
Mechassault Platnium
Amped


GBA:
Castlevania: CotM
Castlevania: AoS
Mega Man Zero 3 (yes, the new one)

I sure would appreciate it! I know there are a lot of old games at my local Kmart, but they only had that tiny crate of them marked as being on sale. I know there has to me more titles than that. (I did spot Amplitude, but I already have it.) They still have Ico here, for cryin' out loud.
 
[quote name='bil4l']Is that bundle just a Wavebird controller and Metroid Prime or what?[/quote]

It's a shrink wrapped bundle of a gray Wavebird with a copy of Metroid Prime in a regular Gamecube case, with the Metroid Prime having a cover that says "Kmart Exclusive Wavebird Wireless Controller Included".
 
On sale at my KMART:

Viewtiful Joe PS2 $7.99

.Hack Outbreak $11.99

Metroid Prime Bundle $15.99

HP Prisoner Azkuban $7.99

Crimson Skies XBOX $11.99

I also found a sealed Wind Waker NonPC.

That's exactly my situation. Last time I saw a deal at K-mart was for Sudeki for $45.

I'm going back to check on Mega Man Zero 3 (which Logain8955 says is marked down as well), so I'll grab you one while I'm there.

That would be great. Thanks! Let me know if you are able to get either of them.

Shoulda clarified on my first post, they've got MechAssault (platinum case, hope that's cool), but no Prime bundle. So MechAssault's what I'll be picking up.
 
I got PGR2, Amped 2, Crimson Skies (29.99-60% each) and 3 wavebird/Prime bundles. Nothing like a complete set of wavebirds. Thanks, OP.

My K-Mart never seems to mark down games. They had some in the 60% off bin, but the ones that I really would have liked (Amplitude and Viewtiful Joe) were still in the game case, marked at $40 and $20 respectively.

Of course, there was no one in the department to check prices for me... *sigh*

Do we know for certain if this is YMMV? If it's chain-wide, it would be worth going back to grab the games...but I'd really rather not waste more of my time.
 
Kmart never has anything, and when they do you have to go across the store to find someone to open the cases because they are afraid someone will steal some crap $2 game.
 
A very good sale, but I think all of the K-Marts in Texas closed down (atleast the ones that were in my area), so no sale for me. :(
 
I just picked up the MegaMan Zero 3, and I only paid 12.70 with tax.

EDIT: The bin at my K Mart was right in front of the electronics register/service counter.
 
So does does this seem to be chain wide? (People all across the country reporting this...) Also does everyone who's found these sales found them in special bins?

Chain-wide. Hunt somebody down.
 
this is NOT YMMV if the employee told me the right thing....

Helped me out, thanks. Gonna go check this out now.
 
Just want to know if anyone has any confirmation if this is really saturday and sunday only, or if it's while supplies last? There's a K-Mart not too far from my job on tuesday if it's still goin' on....
 
Looks like this 60% off Blue Light special is indeed Sat/Sun only. I've been to all 3 Kmarts in town. All 3 had clearance bins/shelves, but all 3 also had clearance games that were still behind the glass (such as Mega Man Zero 3) and still marked at full price but rang up correctly. Hopefully a CAG can get us a list of all clearanced games, because I can just about guarantee that almost every Kmart has more clearanced games than what's in the bins.
 
It is Sat and Sun---60% off. My store had a lot of games: Viewtiful Joe, Suikoden 3, Silent Hill 3, XIII and quite a few others that looked interesting. Most were $7.99.
 
I'm going to check K-Mart for Mega Man Zero 3 tomarrow, but if for someone reason I can't find it, I'd appreciate an extra if someone comes across one.
